Video from Sunday: Hunter Morris steals second base and ends up at third in Nashville's 3-2 loss to Round Rock

Hunter Morris and Ariel Pena the Brewers' Minor League Player and Pitcher of the Month for May.

Tweets: Extended spring training games are complete, as per the Brewers (how did the kids do?) *** RHP Anthony Banda tells us where he'll begin summer play

The Brewers have signed 19-year-old Venezuelan Juan De Los Santos and assigned him to the DSL squad. Milwaukee is currently listing the 5'11" RH bat as an OF. Despite his young age, De Los Santos has already spent his age 17 and 18 seasons in the Nationals' system (career stats). You'll notice the majority of JDLS' action has been at second base. The young man parlayed walks and HBP's to bump his 2012 average of .224 up to an OBP of .383.

Via Jeff Hem's blog -- Audio from Round Rock — “Mondays with Mike (Guerrero)” Here is this week’s installment of “Mondays with Mike” with Sounds manager Mike Guerrero, who mostly discusses second baseman Scooter Gennett and the infielder’s first-ever major league call-up. Guerrero also discusses the Sounds’ first two games in Round Rock, the club’s winning series at home against Iowa and the Sounds’ 5-19 record on the road.

Via Alec at BrewCrewBall -- Brewers Minor League Report: Who's Hot and Who's Not, May 2013

Not really, as catcher Joey Paciorek is activated from the Stars' DL.

Via the Sounds' media notes -- To backfill Scooter's spot at AAA, veteran middle infielder Ozzie Chavez gets bumped back up to Nashville from Huntsville. (Mike Fiers won't be reporting to Nashville for a few days...) That leaves the Stars currently one roster player short.

And here's the photo and video proof, yikes! Thank goodness the bees didn't interfere with the 2013 regional finals of the Hooters International Swimsuit Pageant, as those photos are conveniently linked for you on the same page .

Via Tom Haudricourt: 1st round draft pick Clint Coulter went on TimberRattlers DL today with oblique strain that is not believed to be too serious.

LINK INCLUDES VIDEO INTERVIEW Timber Rattlers pitcher Jorge Lopez gaining confidence on mound Rattlers pitcher showing signs of potential by Tim Froberg, Post-Crescent Media GRAND CHUTE — Jorge Lopez has a big arm and a high ceiling. He’s the youngest pitcher on the Wisconsin Timber Rattlers’ roster and the highest-rated pitching prospect. That’s why patience has been shown the past few months with the 20-year-old right-hander. And it’s starting to pay off. Lopez has struggled for much of the 2013 season, but delivered his second consecutive quality start Sunday in Wisconsin’s 7-5 Midwest League win over the visiting Peoria Chiefs. Lopez, a second-round pick by Milwaukee in the 2011 Major League Baseball draft, allowed three runs on six hits in six innings to pick up the mound win. Mixing an effective curve and change-up with a low-90s fastball, Lopez was sharp for five of his six innings. Four of the hits he allowed came in a three-run Peoria second inning, but none of those hits were smoked and Lopez calmly worked out of a jam which could have produced a much different result. Although his numbers (2-4, 8.33 ERA) aren’t good, Lopez is coming on. In his previous start on May 23 against Quad Cities, Lopez threw six hitless innings to pick up his first win of the season. “He’s building some confidence,” said Wisconsin manager Matt Erickson. “He’s had a couple of nice outings in a row and, hopefully, he’s one of those guys who continues to get better each time he goes out there.” When Lopez faced Peoria earlier in the season on April 7, the results were dreary: six runs on six hits — including three home runs. But Lopez was a different pitcher Sunday and didn’t surrender an extra-base hit. “When he started the year with us, he was kind of wide-eyed and although he had a nice arm, he really didn’t seem to know what he was doing out there,” said Erickson. “I don’t care how good your arm is, if they know it’s coming, they’re going to get good swings on you. He’s doing a better job now of attacking the zone and getting ahead in counts.” Lopez, whose fastball tops out around 95 mph, is rated by Baseball America as Milwaukee’s 23rd-best prospect and is one of four Timber Rattlers ranked among the Brewers’ top 30. “I had good command of my fastball today,” said Lopez. “I got a few up in the third inning, but was confident in all my pitches. The thing I need to do is keep throwing strikes.” Lopez grew up in Puerto Rico, where he graduated from Caguas Military Academy and became the country’s second-highest drafted pitcher ever, behind only Luis Atilano, who was chosen by Atlanta in the supplemental round of the 2003 MLB draft. In addition to being ranked as the top pitching prospect in Puerto Rico, Lopez was considered to be one of the country’s premier volleyball players. “Sometimes, I miss volleyball,” said Lopez. “Baseball is my job and volleyball is like a hobby for me. I can jump and put the ball down.” If he keeps the ball down on the diamond, the 6-foot-4, 186-pound Lopez has the arm talent to rise through the Brewers’ farm system. “He’s a guy who if he continues to learn to set up his pitches, he could be a good one,” said Erickson. “He’s got the ideal body type, where he could develop into a workhorse. He has to keep learning.” Rattlers pitcher Jorge Lopez makes a throw to first against the Peoria Chiefs on Sunday in Grand Chute. / Photo by Ron Page/Post-Crescent Media http://cmsimg.postcrescent.com/apps/pbcsi.dll/bilde?Site=U0&Date=20130603&Category=APC020602&ArtNo=306030188&Ref=AR&MaxW=600&Border=0

Scooter Gennett to Milwaukee - I imagine there will be plenty of discussion on our major league forum. Congrats, our Muppet Babies friend.

Keeling is still a bit erratic with control, but sure has come a long ways since his rookie line: Check out 2010 on his player page This organization just loves seeing its LH relievers move on (well, only seems that way, says Joe Thatcher, Lucas Luetge, and Caleb Thielbar).

Via the Brewers: Milwaukee has acquired 3B Juan Francisco from Atlanta in exchange for minor-league LHP Thomas Keeling. Francisco will wear uniform #21. *** That's how a spot opened up on the Stars roster. Keeling (career stats) was selected by the Brewers in the 18th round of the 2010 First-Year Player Draft out of Oklahoma State University ... was previously drafted by the New York Yankees in the 20th round of the 2009 Draft, but did not sign.

Congrats to Brooks Hall (stats)! Via the 'Tees: RHP Brooks Hall transferred from Brevard County to Huntsville. Brevard County's roster is now at 24 active players, one under the Florida State League limit. *** Doesn't help a late Manatee playoff push, but player development is the key, and this was absolutely deserving. Hall, 23 this month, was selected by the Brewers in the fourth round of the 2009 First-Year Player Draft out of T.L. Hanna (S.C.) High School.

Via Chris and the Rattlers -- C Brent Dean activated from Wisconsin’s Disabled List for today C Clint Coulter placed on Wisconsin’s Disabled List retroactive to May 30 *** There has been no word on the nature or severity of Coulter's injury.

The Daily Menu audio link has been adjusted -- The Brevard broadcast crew is going to Fort Myers for this series after all, so you can click on their usual link. We have been really treated with our FSL coverage this year. So glad we kept pestering GM Kyle ! Great hires!
